AUGUST 13, 1836 The Bill for the reduction of the Newspaper Stamp Duties is at length beyond the power of faction !—it re ceived the Royal assent this day. The Press is now safe, and the public will soon have Newspapers much cheaper. On the 15th of September—about a month from this date—the Bill comes into operation, though we can see no good reason for its postponement beyond the Ist, Though we are grateful for this tardy boon, yet we cannot even now acquit the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, and possibly the Government, of the long, the oppressive de lay—the utter denial of justice to the Stamped Press, which has been allowed to intervene in passing this useful mea sure into a law. The lukewarmness of the Government, in this respect, to protect the honest trader, served only as a stronger incentive to the smuggler. And for this cul pable neglect in protecting the revenue and the Stamped Press, where is, or was, the excuse ?—ln the apprehension of men who were afraid to be just, because it might affect the revenue, while the revenue was all along being hourly plundered by persons who set the law at de fiance, and gloried in their " martyrdom," for breaking a law that was considered inexpedient if not oppressive, even by the Government themselves ! In making these remarks, which we do in the bitterness of spirit at the long-continued ingratitude of Ministers to the Press, let us not be mistaken. Better late than never. The Tories never would reduce the Stamp Duty on News papers, as they proved by their speeches against the reduc tion, and their votes in favour of Soap rather than Knowledge. For many years past the public will bear us testimony that The Sun has been an unremitting advocate for the reduction of the Stamp Duty, and the consequent diffu sion of knowledge ; and it shall always be our pride, as well as our interest, to persevere—for it is only by perseverance that great ends can be attained—in advocating such measures as may best promote the diffusion of useful knowledge and good Government, and conduce to the true interests of all classes of the community. _here is, it is well known, more slaughter perpetrated on the 12th of August than on any other day in the year. Hitherto it has been confined to the moors, but it would seem as if the Tory sportsmen in the House of Lords had determined this year not to be behind hand with those who are making hill and dale resound with their achievements. The atmosphere of the House was perhaps not quite so pure as the mountain breeze,but it was to all appearance equally ex citing. Slaughter—indiscriminate slaughter was the order of the day ; and if there be any differenc e between the sports men in and those out of the House, it is that the former pursue their game with more doggednes s than the latter. A poor grouse may have some chance for its life, but if the Noble and Learned Pointer of the Lords once gives the signal, the fate of a Bill is decided. Last night the Post-office Bill was regularly burked ; and the Registration of Voters Bill so mutilated, so com pletely gutted of all its best provisions, that it cannot be accepted by the Commons. It is known to every one who has paid the least attention to the subject, that the want of uniformity in the decisions of the Revising Barristers has produced great uncertainty in the public mind respect ing qualification. What was held a good qualification on one side of a brook, or fence, was utterly worth less on the other. Nothinc , could be more calculated to bring into contempt the character of the Barris ters and off their Courts, than decisions of this contra dictory nature ; and to remedy the evil, the Bill in question provided that there should be a Court of Review, com posed of men whose names and abilities would carry some weight, and who would give auth or it y , as we ll as uni formity, to their Judgments. This was too good a thing to escape unscathed, and, accordingly, out it went, on the motion of my Lord WHARNCLIFFE, who played the part of the ex-Chancellor, and played it well on this occasion. Then followed other clauses, until the measure was brought down to the true Tory standard of emasculation. In the rejection of the Post-office Bill it fell to the lot of the Duke of RICHMOND to lead the way. The Noble Duke was once, we believe, at the head of the Post-office Department, and seems to think that it stand s in need of no amendment. This opinion of his is at variance with that of almost every other person in the kingdom, with the exception of the handful of Tory Lords who voted with him, because he voted against the Government. Lord MELBOURNE showed triumphantly that the reports of all the com m i s _ sions and boards, which had taken the question into consi deration, were in favour of an alteration of the present sy s . tern. Among other authorities the Noble Lord quoted Lord LOWTHER, the only man of business the Tories have among them, but all in vain. It was a ministerial measure, and a good measure, and these were reasons enough, and • more than enough, to procure its damnation in the House of Lords. The conduct of the House of Lords is becoming every day more offensive —more dictatorial—more obnoxious to the real interests of the country. It would really appear from their pr ocee di ngs that they were desirous to try the experiment of how much i n j ury John Bull will sustain at their hands, without resenting, or putting a determined stop to it. Night after night th e most important measures are rejected, some with a show o f respect, but the majority with supercilious indifference, without a why or wherefore, except that it is their Lordships ' pl easure so to act. As for calm and rational discussion, our hereditary legislators are far too proud to degrade themselv es b y any plebeian vulgarity o f this sort ; it is quite enough f or t h em to know that a parti cu l ar measure h a s received the approbation of such men as HuME and O ' CONNELL, to fling it from them with abhorrence, as though it were tainted with a m ora l leprosy. W e won d er , s i nce t h ey are so sensitive on this point, that they do not fumigate the Bills that are sent up • . - • f - - t • - to them from the Commons. Such a proceeding would not be a whit more absurd than their present course of conduct. However, all things have their advantages, and even the caprices of our bereditary. Solons-.—who are wise by the flattering fiction of the Constitution, despite a thousand flagrant proofs to the contrary—are working favourably for Reform. A few years since we only distrusted the legis lative capacity of the House of Lords ; now, thanks to its own frank exposure, we are convinced of its utter imbe cility. We know now what we have —or, rather, what we have not—to expect at its hands, and knowing this, we are prepared to act acco r di n gly. It is no longer a factious section of the community that is convinced of the necessity of a Reform in the Upper House—it is the united people of three kingdoms, who never yet expressed a sense of wrong without having that wrong redressed. Yet Lord WHARNCLIFFE, forsooth, taunts Ministers with an ignorance of their true position ! He even hints that they do not understand the feelings of their country men. Mark the Noble Waverer's language on this subject. " He (Lord MELBOURNE) appeared to be altogether blind to the position in which be and his colleagues stood. In the House of Lords they had no power whatever, and in the Commons it was barely kept up by the precarious sup port of a party, who on all occasions unequivocally declared their political opinions to be far in advance of those of Go vernment, and their determination to promote the full success of those views by every means in their power. Rut for that party, Government would be in a very slender minority. He was jealous, then, of Ministers, because they had no power in the Commons without the support of that party." It is evident from this insulting language that Lord WHARN CLIFFE imagines that Government is supported solely by faction, and has not the slightest hold on the good opinion of the country. Now, how preposterous is such reasoning ! Granted, that Ministers ar e t o a cons id era bl e extent d pendent on the HUME and O'CoNNELL party, who sent that party to Parliament ? There are few or no rotten boroughs now-a-days—certainly none sufficiently numerous to return sixty or seventy strenuous Reformers to the House of Commons ; they must then, as a matter of course, be the free choice of a free constituency ; and being so, how can Lord WHARNCLIFFE object itas a fault to Ministers, that they rely on them for support ? But then, says this astute Aristocrat, Government " has no power whatever in the House of Lords." Why, this is the very reason why the people place such confidence in it, knowing right well that, as the Upper House is now constituted, Ministers could only gain its support by abandoning the cause of Reform ! So much for WHARNCLIFFE logic ; and now, since the Noble Waverer has condescended to show Ministers how little they understand their position, we, in turn, will show him and his party how little they understand theirs. Deceived by the present tranquil appearances of the country, these men think that such appearances are the result of popular contentment—of popular apathy ; and that be cause the provinces betray no symptoms of convulsive agitation, that therefore they approve of the freaks of the House of Lords, and are utterly careless whether it be reformed or not. Now, never was there a more mistaken notion than this. John Bull is a shrewd, far-sighted, old gentleman, who is ever on the 100k -out, even when he ap pears most lethargic. His quiescence is not the result of irresolution, but of a mind collecting its energies for an expected emergency. He is slow to strike, but when he does, be strikes home. He has no occasion to repeat his bloW. Has Lord WHARNCLIFFE no recollection of the general calm that prevailed a few months previous to the dismissal of the WELLINGTON, and the establishment of the GREY, Administration ? All was a dead hush then ; and yet but a short time afterwards, the coun try was stirred from its depths, and convulsed from one end to the other! As it was then, so will it again be. The present apparent lull is no more to be depended on, than continuous sun-shine on a fickle April day. If we be just now tranquil, it is, not because we are enamoured of the hereditary system of legislatibn, but because we see that all remonstrance, whether gentle or violent, is thrown away on it, and that therefore nothing remains for us to do, but silently gather up our energies for the great day of battle which, we foresee, is fast approaching. Let not Lord WHARNCLIFFE then, and his Tory colleagues " lay the flattering unction to their souls" that the calm ness of the country is a test of the popularity of the Lords ; and still less let them suppose that Ministers are wholly ignorant of their true position as respects the people. That they are not sufficiently awake to it, we, who are their sup porters, but not their sycophants, will readily admit ; Svc will admit also that they have alienated many of their best friends by their utter want of address, and skill, and energy on some recent occasions; but we will not admit that the blunders they have committed •are past reparation. They still have it in their power to rectify their errors ; to gather the Reformers, as one man, about them ; and place themselves on such high vantage ground, that neither the Court nor the Tories shall be able to occasion them the slightest molestation. But to secure this impregnable po sition, they must exert skill, diligence, and above all and before all, energy. They must not be scared by every sound that issues from the Tory camp. They must not swoon because Lord LYNDHURST frowns ; or be lifted into "the seventh heaven," because Sir ROBERT PEEL smiles. They must be octet] on by popular influence, and this only. All other is factitious, and not to be depended on from hour to hour. The present Parliamentary Session has well nigh closed, and the Reformers can count the gain of more losses than ever befel them in the Session of a Boroughmongering, Parliament. We have the spectacle of a Ministry, pro fessedly liberal, commanding a good working majority in the Commons, defeated on every principle they have advocated, and on every measure they have declared essential to the welfare to the country. If ever a period was known at which it was incumbent on an Administration to concentrate their strength, and to array all their supporters for a vigorous and united resis tance to the enemies of good Government, this has been the time ; and we might have reasonably expected that, when the Lords were falling back upon the old defences of pure Toryism, Lord MELBOURNE would secure the hearty alli ance of the Dissenters. Their influence is that of a class commanding a majority in the State, pervading the middle orders, who think and act with effect, and demanding only what nearly every body allows to be a claim of justice. Amongst their grievances, the old form of Marriage was by no means the most prominent, while the payment of Church Rates is an annoyance odious and unjust, perpetually recur ring in a form the most offensive to a man of principle, and involving daily agitation and heart-burnings. It is, in short, one of those irritating stimuli by which in all the history of nations great changes are brought about. A Tory Govern ment, if we had one, could do nothing more politic than to abolish Church Rates, and get rid of a question, by the agitation of which men are driven to think about the Church and its enormities. Yet a Liberal Government suf fer it to remain open—they have ventured on deducing an argument for their neglect from the quiescence with which their friends have confided in their assurances, and awaited their time of action—they have perhaps suffered themselves to believe they might do this with impunity, and rely on the fancied dread of an active Tory Government as the only alternative of do-nothing Whigs. We find, however, the Dissenters are stirring; they see in what their confidence has resulted, and are taking vigo rous measures to show that in future their trust shall be in themselves, and their public friends be held at just so much as they are proved to be worth. Every provincial paper brings some account of Church Rates contested or refused, and it will be seen from an ad vertisement in our columns, to which we direct special attention, that united measures will now be adopted for driving the question to a settlement. The resolutions emanated from a number of highly respectable ministers and laymen from various parts of the kingdom, who had met at Bungay, on the occasion of a piece of plate being pre sented to Mr. JOHN CHILDS, by a deputation from the Dissenters of Ipswich, " as a testimony of the grateful re membrance they entertained of that moral heroism, which induced him to sustain the privation even of p ersona l li berty, that h e m i g ht expose the injustice of compulsory payment to the State-Church, and vividly exhibit the tyranny of its Ecclesiastical Courts." It was fit that some practical uses should result from such an assemblage, and we are glad to see that a course of action has been sketched out, which ought to be followed by the friends of civil and religious liberty throughout the empire. Those resolutions very properly recommend the adoption of EVERY legal means to prevent the levying of Church- Rates, for, even when unsuccessful, the resistance is in itself a most effective kind of agitation. Parishioners, in Parish Vestry assembled, have a right to hear every item of expenditure read, and a discussion may be raised on each. Thus, instead of permitting a charge to pass of thirty shillings for washing surplices, the bill for each wash ing of each surplice should be read, and there may be thirty opportunities of asking the Churchmen present, if they are not ashamed of comi ng to t h e par i sh table, to ask for pay ment for the washin g o f t h e i r shirts ? There are nume rous other payment s of a similar kind, which may qtuheesmt i s o e n l s v e ands of r e e m v e a r r y k s ; (3 p g a iv y e ers r , ise by to p a p n or d tu r n a i t : ty e av similara i n thus offered, may make the Church party ashamed of their own doings, and compelled, rathe r than encounter the an nual exposure and the annual shouts of derision, to have recourse to voluntary subscriptions. It was thus that the war commenced in Manchester. The opponents of a rate satisfied themselves at first with comments on the shameful nature of the items. Next year there was a large attend ante from mere curiosity, and an attempt was made to throw out some of the items. On the following year the attendance was still more numerous, and the rate was re duced from three-pence to one halfpenny, and thus the contest went on till the Churchwardens were compelled to abandon the compulsory rate, and adopt an "optional" one.

On the evening of the 2d, accounts reached Madrid of the Proclamation of the Constitution in Cadiz, Saragossa, Seville, &c. A Cabinet Council was forthwith summoned to meet at the private residence of Senor IsTuatz, who is suffering from an • attack of brain fever. The Council sat in deliberation from midnight till 5 o'clock in the morning, when orders were issued to recall the troops destined to march against Malaga, and to suspend the publication of the Royal Ordinance, which was to have appeared in the Gazette of the 3d, proclaiming Malaga in a state of insurrection. Accordingly on the morning of the 3d, Brigadier MANDIVIL, at the head of the column destined to march against the Malagueros, re-en tered Madrid. It was also resolved in the Council to send Royal Commissioners to the several cities in which the Constitution had been proclaimed, to persuade the people to return to their duty ; to send other Commissioners to the peaceable provinces to recommend order and subordi nation to the inhabitants ; and to strengthen the capital by a regular force of not less than twenty thousand veteran troops. The cities in which the Constitution of 1812 have already been proclaimed are Malaga, Cadiz, Cordova, Se ville, Xeres, Puerto, Santa Maria, and the Isle of Leon. The QUEEN-REGENT was at La Granja, where the Fo reign Ambassadors had also taken up their residence. Her MAJESTY is represented as greatly incensed against ISTU RIZ, whom she accuses of having deceived her with re spect to the real sentiments of the people. It is now very doubtful as to whether the President of the Council will meet the Cortes in his Ministerial capacity. His col leagues are filled with terror, and nothing prevents them from resigning but the m or tifi cat i on w hi ch would follow from affording MENDIZABAL a second triumph. IsTunTz is a man of courage, and will not resign while there is the shadow of a hope of his ultimate triumph over the dis affected ; but he is also a patriot, and will not sacrifice the 1 country to the gratification of his personal ambition. The Earl and Countess of Shrewsbury have arrived at their seat, Alton Tower, from Leamington, where they stayed a few days, on their way from the metropolis. The crowd of visitants to this princely place increases every day. Its baronial armoury, its magnificent galleries of painting and sculpture, its lofty solemn chapel, and its extraordinary gar dens, are unequalled. The interview between the King and his Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex, on Wednesday last, is said to have been very interesting, as it was the first visit of the Royal Duke to his Majesty since he underwent the operation for the recovery of his sight.--Morning Post. Lord Harborough, who recently suffered much from ill health, is on his annual voyage in his yacht. His Lordship generally resides in great sec l us i on at his seat Btapleford, hut the lady of his love is said to have vanished from the hall, no one knows whither. Last week there was found, 20 feet down in the freestone rock of Clashbennie Quarry the finest specimen of organic remains ever yet discovered in that place. The quar ryman, though ignorant of its value, fortunately extracted and preserved the specimen very perfect ; the impresssion on the stone, which is that of a fish, is 27 inches long and 13 broad, and is regularly mailed over with shells, like those of the cro codile species.—. Edinburgh Advertiser. On Saturday a number of reapers being assembled together near Lincoln, a person, for the pleasure of witnessing the sport, threw a quantity of apples amongst them, for a , scramble, when one of them, who was down, was so heavily pressed upon by his companions, that the blade of a clasp_ knife, which he had put into his pocket open, penetrated his side to a great depth below the ribs, and caused a protrusion of the bowels. He is now in the hospital in a fair way of re covery. The example ought to be followed, and every Parish Church made a " Normal school of agitation." .The whole of the Paris Papers of Thursday have been received. In the Journal des Debats we find the following extract of a letter from Berne, under date of the 7th instant : " An express was received at nine o'clock last night, by the Duke de Montebello, who two hours afterwards went to the President of the Directory, and declared that if the measures proposed to the Diet by its Committee were found insufficient, and were not amended by the Diet, so as to produce a result equally desirable for the Confederation and for Europe, Swit zerland must expect to be immediately blockaded. This step by the French Ambassador was followed up this morning by a similar communication from the Ministers of Austria, Prussia, and Baden, who are said to have declared to the President that they were come to support the declaration of France; and added, that if Switzerland rendered coercive measures ne cessary, the expenses thereby created, and the indemnities due to the people who might suffer from them, would be placed to her account." We are at a loss to comprehend by what right France thus dares to menace the Swiss Confederacy with a blockade. If she cannot defend the person of her SOVE REIGN without establishing a system of espionage through out Europe, and disturbing the internal Government of other States, it were preferable to get rid of him by an other Revolution. The liberal journals loudly complain of the silence of the Government organs with respect to the Constitutional movements in Spain. The Government is undoubtedly well acquainted with the events now going forward, but as the KING is still doubtful with respect to the expediency of active, immediate intervention, it has probably judged it most prudent to suppress all official accounts of the first outbreaks in the revolutionary provinces. With regard to the war in Spain, we find the following in the Journal de Paris:— " On the 3d inst. a corps of the Christino army was march ing on Leon. On the 2d, Gomez was within a day's march of that town. The bands that he had left in the Asturias and Galicia have been destroyed. General Espartero entered Oviedo on the 3d, and the next day proceeded towards Astor gua. On the sth, Villareal was in the Amercoas." Private letters from Paris state that dreadful outrages are nightly committed in that city after dusk. The police spend all their time in looking after, and most probably hatching plots, instead of protecting the lives and proper ties of the peaceful citizens. On Monday night, Mr. NAGLE, an Irish gentleman, was stabbed in the Rue de Varennes, and on Wednesday morning he died of the wound which he received. M. VIGOUREUX, the Editor of the Bun Sens, narrowly escaped a similar fate on Wednes day night. Several other attempts at assassination have taken place during the present week. PARIS, Au°. I.—The Madrid. Journals of the 3d August received this morning, contain no news from Seville of a later date than the 27th July. They are still describing the fetes celebrated on the 23d in honour of Queen Christina. The accounts from Valencia, received by way of Perpignan, are of the 27th July. The city was in fact closely pressed by Cabrera, and had no communication except by sea. The latest accounts from Barcelona are of the 30th July, at which time nothing new had occurred. Now, what has happened in those places since the above date ? The telegraph might inform us, unless the communi cations through Arragon are interrupted, as is asserted. The Moniteur of this morning publishes nothing important. It is affirmed that the Government has received no news from the Queen, nor even from M. de Rayneval. Hence it is feared that the communications are interrupted. Colonel Conrad will take the command of the Foreign Legion of General Bernelle, who retires, on account of his health, as it is said; and Lieutenant-Colonel Tosse, of the 48th Regiment of the Line, will command the new Legion. The Minister of War has asked of Prince Czartoriski 300 Poles, to send them to Spain, where the several corps of cavalry formed by General Bernelle, and composed almost entirely of Poles, has distinguished itself.—Journal du Corn. BA 1 ONNE, AITO. 6.—The Sentinelle has the following ar ticle :—" The kingdom of Valencia is in the most critical situation. Quilez, and the monk Esperanza, have passed the Tucar, and entered the rich villsges of Alcira, Carcagena, Mogente, Alberique, and San Felipe de Xativa ; they have likewise entered the adjoining hamlets, where they have been guilty of excesses, at which even the banditti of the Abruzzi would have blushed Pillage, murder, fire, &c., have left traces which will never be effaced from the memory of the un fortunate inhabitants. The rebels have taken the road to Ali cant, loaded with gold, and mounted on magnificent horses, which abound in that part of the province. The navy has just 103 t one of its most distinguished officers. Vice Admiral the Marquis de Sercey, Peer of France, died last night at the age of eighty-four years.—Journal des Debats. The health of the Duke of Orleans, without giving ground for serious alarm, obliges him to discontinue his excursions with his relations from Naples.

The Duke and Duchess of St. Albans left Christ church, Hants, yesterday, for Weymouth, where they intend to stop a few days, on their way to town, to make prepara tions for their departure for the Continent. Miss Angela Burdett, youngest daughter of Sir Francis, who has been for some months on a visit to the Duke and Duchess, has joined Lady Burdett, in St. James's-place. The Duke of Beaufort, accompanied by the Earl of Chesterfield, left town on Wednesday for Brighton. The younger branches of the family of the Duke and Duchess of Bedford have left Belgrave-square for the Doune of Rothiemurchus, in the Highlands. Her Grace will visit her nephew, the Duke of Richmond, at Gordon Castle, in October, when that baronial edifice will be very gay.

In addition to the salubrity of the air, it will be a convenient distance from the metropolis for Lord John to return to town as bu siness may require. Lady Mulgrave has arrived at Mulgrave Castle, Yorkshire. Her Ladyship is much attached to the place, for its romantic situation and delightful scenery cannot be surpassed. Her presence is always cheering to the tenantry and to the poor, as she delights in doing good, and in administering to the wants of those who stand in need of assistance. TRICKS UPON TRAVELLERS.—T OM a Cor respondent).—A gentlema n voyag i ng to TRAVELLERS.- ogne by one of , he cheap steamers met, a few days since, with a very ugly contretemps. He was the bearer of a remarkably handsome sable boa, of some thirty guineas value, an intended present to some favoured fair one. Anxious that this costly affair should escape the lynx-eyed investigation of the French douaniers, he requests an affable sort of body in petticoats (with whom he had . established en rout e a ki nd of traveller's chit-chat) to pass it for him on her shoulders : "We shall meet again," says he, " after the ordeal is over, and I shall relieve you of it with thanks." This, however, was a species of relief not quite intelligible to our a f fable friend; who met his smiling ap plication for its restoration with a volume of the lowest and loudest abuse, for daring (" pitiful swindling vagabond as he was I") to claim what had been her own for months, " the gift of her dear, dear papa." As the sort of people imported by boats are not in the best possible odour at Boulogne, the ruse succeeded ; all sided with the lady, and the " vrai Amphitrion" (a perfect stranger in the town) not only lost his boa, but nar rowly escaped a sound ducking.—Morning Paper. A third attempt to obtain a church rate, at Sutton in- Ashfield, has been made, and again failed.—Doncaster Gazette. We should advise the victims of rheumatism, and those liable to the disease, to avoid all unnecessary exposure to a cold and damp air ; we should advise them to cover the whole surface of the body with that kind of clothing which will best protect the system from their influence—the most trustworthy of which is, beyond all doubt, flannel; and this should be worn by day, and left off by night. In this way the surface of the body is not unduly and unnecessarily debili tated by keeping it in a state of excitement in bed, where the temperature of the air is necessarily almost uniform, and the' immediate contact of cold air with the body is, or ought to be, impossible, whether in the shape of draughts or in any other way; while the body is protected by it at the only times when it is exposed, or likely to be exposed, to the exciting causes of rheumatism—Magazine of Health. Vanguard, Plymouth Sound, August 9, 1836. SIR—We returned to this anchorage yesterday, after a weeks' absence, during which we have had three trials with the squadron ; one in a good stiff breeze, with a sea ; the others in smooth water and light airs, and in all of them this ship had a decided superiority. The Bellerophon, 80, (flag ship) holds us the greatest tug ; Pembroke, 74, next ; but it would be difficult to place the Hercules, Minden, or Cornwallis any where. Sir William Symonds left us off the Eddystone in the Admiral's tender a few days ago, after witnessing one trial since the 40 tons of ballast were removed, perfectly satisfied, as well he may be, with the pre-eminent qualifications of his splendid and magnificent ship. Throughout these trials the squadron has been strictly limited to the same sail precisely that the Admiral himself has set ; but as a proof of the matchless stability of the Vanguard, it may perhaps be worthy of some little consideration to know that, with top gallant sails over single-reefed top sails, courses, jib and spanker, going nine and six on a bow li ne , s h e not on l y carried her lower deck ports up, but could also hare had her orlop deck scuttle out with perfect ease. My particular object for addressing this faithful and im partial account (which will be corroborated by the official report of the Commander-in-Chief), is to contradict a para graph copied into your liberal paper last week from the Hampshire Telegraph of the Ist instant, the whole of which, as regards this ship, does not contai n a wor d o f truth. We calculated on meeting the Asia, 84, during this cruize, that our noble Chief might hav e h a d the opportunity of wit nessing a trial between us, but it is supposed she has gone on to the Mediterranean. On the day we removed the 40 tons of her ballast from the hold, it was placed on one side the main -deck, which did not make the ship incline one;degree--another proof, if wanted, of the ship's stability. Sir William Symonds may, without con tradiction, be fairly entitled to the important motto, which the bust of his Vanguard proudly boasts, " Palmam qui meruit ferat."

(THIS DAY), SATURDAY, AUGUST 13. HOUSE OF LORDS. ROYAL ASSENT. The House sat to-day at twelve o'clock. Shortly after that hour, the Lord Chancellor, the Earl of Shaftesbury, and Lord Duncannon took their seats as Lords Commissioners, for the purpose of giving the Royal Assent to the following Bills :—The Customs Duties Bill, the Spirits Excise (Ire land) Bill, Paper Duties Bill, the Reduction of the Stamp Duties on Newspapers Bill, the Newspaper Postages Bill, Stage Carriages Duties Bill, the Commutation of Tithes in England and Wales Bill, the Ecclesiastical Duties Revenue Bill, the Bills of Exchange Bill, the Horse Patrol Bill, the Foreign Letters Prevention Bill, the Schools Building Bill, the Land Tax Commissioners Bill, the Ecclesiastical Ap pointments Suspension Bill, the Ottoman Consul's Bill, the Highway Rates Bill, the Light-Houses Bill, the Cape of Good Hope Administration of Justice Bill, the Turnpike Roads Bill, the Prince of Wales Island Bill, the Western Australia Bill, the Court of Ex chequer (Scotland) Bill, the Gold and Silver Plate (Scot land) Bill, the Cessio Bonorum (Scotland) Bill, the Civil Bill Courts (Ireland) Bill, the Court of Chancery (Ireland) Bill, the Loan Societies' (Ireland) Bill, the Richmond Peni tentiary (Ireland) Bill, the Copyright (Ireland) Bill, Owners of Vessels (Ireland) Liability Bill, the Leith and Newhaven Railway Bill, the Dublin and Drogheda Grand Junction Railway Bill, the Lambeth Suspension Bridge Bill, Hungerford and Lambeth Foot Bridge Bill, the Liverpool Court of Passages Bill, the Worcester Dean and Chapter Estate Bill, and Horton Estate Bill. MESSAGE FROM THE COMMONS. Mr. BERNAL and other Members of the House of Commons brought up the Corporate Property ( Ireland) Bill, the Coal Trade Bill, the Disembodied Militia Bill, and the Small Debts (Westminster) Bill, which were severally read a first time, and ordered to be read a second time on Monday. The amendments of the House of Commons to the York and Ely Secular Jurisdiction Bill were agreed to. The Slave-owners Compensation Bill, and the Slave Treaty Bill were read a second time, on the motion of Lord DUNCANNON, and ordered to be committed on Monday. The Sunk Island Estate Bill was read a third time and passed. Mr. ENVART on the part of the House of Commons, re• quested a Conference with their Lordships on their amend. ments in the Prisoner's Counsel Bill. The House then adjourned to Monday. HOUSE OF COMMONS. WESTMINSTER SMALL DEBTS. :MUNICIPAL ELECTIONS. After some few observations from the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, Mr. LYNCH, and Mr. POTTER, the Report was brought up. The Kingston Harbour Bill went through Committee, and was ordered to be reported on Monday. JEWISH DISABILITIES BILL. On the motion of the CHANCELLOR of the EX CHEQUER, The Report on the Jewish Disabilities' Bill was received, and the Bill was ordered to be read a third time on Monday. MUNICIPAL CORPORATIONS. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL moved for leave to bring in three Bills which were composed merely of detached clauses of the Municipal Amendment Bill. The principle em bodied in these clauses had already received the sanction of both Houses of Parliament. The first related to the admini stration of justice in certain boroughs; the second temporarily defined the boundaries of boroughs, and was rendered necessary in consequence of a blunder committed by the House of Lords, and the third related to the administation of the funds in certain boroughs. The Right Hon. Gentleman concluded by giving notice that on Monday he should move the suspension of the Standing Orders, to enable him to pass these Bills through all their stages. Mr. AGLIONBY made a few observations relative to the last Bill, the purport of which did not reach the gallery. The Bills were then read a first time, and ordered to be read a second time on Monday. Mr. P. M. STEWART obtained leave to bring in a Bill to amend the laws which govern the Salmon Fishing in Scotland. Mr. F. MAULE obtained leave to bring in a Bill to le galize certain lists of voters, and of claims and objections for the present year. This Bill was rendered necessary in conse quence of a mistake at the Home Office, but he was obliged I to acquit his N o bl e F r i end, and take all the blame upon himself. PAROCHIAL APPOINTMENTS BILL. This Bill was read a second time, and ordered to be corn mitted on Monday next. The House then, at two o'clock adjourned. The Duke of Lucca is on the eve of contracting a loan of 700,000 florins, with the house of Rothschild ; the whole of the capital to be repaid in ten years.—.Allgemeine Zeitung. REPRESENTATION OF WESTMINSTER. --We have heard that Mr. Cuff, the King's saddler, and Mr. Fincham, the tea-dealer. are personally canvassing the elec tors on behalf of Sir George Murray. A notion has gone abroad that Sir F. Burdett is about to accept the Chiltern Hundreds. The Reformers should be on the alert. Lord Chelsea and his bride, late Miss Mary Wel lesley, have been passing the honeymoon at the Marquis of Londonderry's seat, Seaham Lodge, Sunderland. The father of the Noble bridegroom is said to have b ecome reconc il e d to the marriage, to which he withheld his consent for some time. Lady Emily Wellesley, mother of the fair bride, is sister to Earl Cadogan. Died, on the 11th inst., at the Royal Mews, Pim lico, Mr. Rand, coachman to his late and present Majejty nearly forty years, in th e 7 3d year of his age. He has left a widow and large family. MOUNT'S BAY BREAKWATER.—HiS • Majesty has been pleased to signify, through Lord John Russell, to Mr. Carteret J. W. Ellis, one of the members of the Mount's bay Breakwater deputation, his approbation of the great na tional work proposed to be executed at Penzance ; and has most graciously intimated his pleasure, as Duke of Cornwall, to become its patron. A surprisingly large thorough-bred Yorkshire h orse was exhibited in the Star stables on the market-day. The horse stands nearly 20 hands high; but it was admitted by all who saw him that he was not well proportioned. He was got by Cleveland. Some hundreds of persons wont to see hint it the course of the day.—Zrighton Gazette. The SPEAKER took his seat at the table at 12 o'clock—up to 10 minutes past, he was unable to take the chair 40 Mem bers not being present. At that hour the House was sum moned by the Usher of the Black Rod to hear the Royal Assent given by Commission to various Bills, for which see Lords' report. On the return of the SPEAKER, Mr. BROTHE RTON moved the third reading of this which was accordingly read a third time and passed. PRISONERS COUNSEL BILL. Mr. ENVART brought up the report of the Committee appointed to take into consideration the Lords' amendments on this Bill, stating they had agreed to all the amendments but one, which they had disagreed to. CONSOLIDATED FUND—APPROPRIATION CLAUSE. On the motion of the CHANCELLOR of the EX CHEQUER, the House went into Committee on the Con solidated Fund Bill—the Appropriation Clause was added, and the Bill, as amended, was reported, and the Report or dered to be received on Monday next. EXCHEQUER BILLS BILL. This Bill went through Committee, some Clauses were added, and the Bill was reported, and the Report was ordered to be received on Monday. TITHE COMPOSITION (IRELAND) BILL. Mr. R. STEUART brought up the Report of the Com mittee on this Bill. POOR LAW LOANS BILL. Mr. -BERNAL brought up the Report of the Committee on this Bill. The Bill was ordered to be engrossed, and read a third time on Monday. Mr. BERNAL brought up the Report of the Committee on the Municipal Elections Bill. The ATTORNEY -GENERAL would feel it his duty to object to the sth clause. Mr. HAWKINS defended the clause. If it was struck out, and that the Registration of Voters Bill did not pass the House of Lords, as was generally supposed would be the case, then there would be six or eight boroughs from which there could be no returns in the event of a general election. The ATTORNEY -GENERAL hoped the Hon. Mem ber would not press the clause, as it was introducing new mat ter, and might endanger the passing of the Bill. If the clause was added by any Noble Lord by way of amendment, then the House of Commons would readily accept it. The clause was then negatived. The Copyright Bill was reported, and on the motion of the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER it was recom mitted, a clause added, and ordered to be reported on Monday. PUBLIC WORKS (IRELAND) BILL. On the motion of the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHE QUER, the House went into Committee on the above Bill, which was for the purpose of authorising the Government to appropriate 100,0001. of the residue of the Million Loan to the public Works in Ireland. Mr. LYNCH complained of the smallness of the sum. In 1831 the Parliament had advanced a sum of 500,0001., all of which had now been appropriated most beneficially to the country. Such a sum should now hare been advanced, and he hoped the Government would, before next session, look at the evidence given before the Committee which sat on the subject, and he felt persuaded they would consider it their duty to be more liberal next year. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER thought that both Parliament and Government had been very liberal, and met with but a bad return for their liberality in the objec tion of his Learned Friend. This advance was not to be con sidered as a loan; it was certainly a loan as regarded the individual partie, but it was a gift as connected with Par. liament. He entreated his Hon. Friends not to press too much upon the liberality of Government. After a few words from Mr. FRENCH, Mr. WARBURTON said he doubted whether in the long run it was for the benefit of Ireland, in the present state of the money market, to make these large advances. He thought the much the better way would be to invite capital into that country by allowing competition. As, however, the sum came out of the million, he had less objection to making the advance.
